Today Allison, Eva and I went into Boston for Accepted Students Day at Massachusetts College of Art and Design. We were there early for a special breakfast for scholarship students. Those students who had received presidential, provost and other scholarships. Eva received one and so was honored at the event. We walked in and got registered. Eva was given a tote bag with a water bottle and a few other items. We went to the smaller auditorium which must have been an old gymnasium for breakfast with the college president. I guess she came over to chat with our table when I went out and got more bacon.
At the breakfast they had a presentation and showed artwork from each student present and give them each a certificate and a pretty nice coffee mug. We sat wit a family from Vermont and a young man from Newton.
After the breakfast there was a presentation in another, larger auditorium. There we also had an address by the president but also from other members of the staff. That was a bout a half hour and then we went across the street to the residence hall called The Treehouse. We toured a couple of rooms as well as the common spaces for students. This hall is actually filled with Mass Art and students from the College of Pharmacy and Health. Certain floors are for each college. There are two other residence halls for MassArt students. I took this shot from the top of the Treehouse residence hall, floor 20.
